OpenLine · WhatsApp for the desk
The studio WhatsApp. The number stays yours. OpenLine is the professional WhatsApp inbox for a studio. You keep your own numbers. Operators work in a browser, on EU-hosted Altovar infrastructure. Chats stay archived for the team — not trapped on one phone.
THIS CYCLE
Four things that are true today. CHANNEL WhatsApp The product is a professional WhatsApp client. Other chat networks are out of this cycle.
THE NUMBER Yours You keep your own numbers. The phone stays the primary device; WhatsApp is not installed on the PC.
WHERE THE TEAM WORKS The browser Operators open a shared inbox in the browser. They do not need WhatsApp on the workstation.
WHERE IT RUNS EU-hosted SaaS on Altovar infrastructure in the EU, with a permanent archive of the professional thread.
Voice stays on the phone. Open WhatsApp on that phone at least every 14 days, or the link expires.
THE THREAD
From a personal number to a studio inbox. Four moves. The number stays on the phone. The work happens in the browser.
A phone keeping the WhatsApp number, a browser inbox with a shared thread, several operators on that thread, and an EU archive stamp. Your number Browser inbox Operators Archive EU 01 You keep the number The studio links the numbers it already uses. They stay yours. The phone remains the primary WhatsApp device.
02 The team opens a browser Operators work in a shared inbox in the browser. WhatsApp itself is not installed on the PC or on a terminal server.
03 Several people, one thread More than one operator can take the same conversation. Assign, hold, release — the client is not tied to a single pocket.
04 The archive stays in Europe The professional thread is kept on EU-hosted infrastructure — including if you later unlink and link again.
THE STUDIO
Built for a team that already lives in WhatsApp. Accountants, offices, anyone who needs the number on the door and the work on a shared desk.
Own numbers You do not rent a new line. You keep the numbers clients already write to.
Shared inbox Operators see the same thread in the browser, with roles so the studio decides who can take which chats.
Archive and drafts The thread is kept. Assisted drafts stay a suggestion: the operator always sends. OUT OF THIS CYCLE
What this page does not claim. OpenLine is WhatsApp for the studio. Neighbouring ideas wait for a later cycle.
No other chat networks This cycle is WhatsApp. Other messaging products are not part of OpenLine today, and this page does not sell them.
Voice stays on the phone In-app calling is out of this cycle. Calls stay on the phone that holds the number.
Not WhatsApp on the PC Operators work in the browser inbox. The desktop does not become a second WhatsApp install.
Unofficial WhatsApp link The link is unofficial. OpenLine is not affiliated with Meta. GDPR processing appointment is public, still in draft.
Open the inbox. Keep the number. The live inbox is on Altovar infrastructure in the EU. Talk to us if you want it on a studio.
